But money is also an important factor.<BR/><BR/>Case in point, I wanted to get pure volunteers. as in volunteers lang talaga. Pero mahirap kumuha ng ganun. In order to keep them, I still need to give them some kind of incentive.<BR/><BR/>But I'm keeping it at a minimum.<BR/><BR/>Meanwhile, ako na lang yung kumakanta at sumasayaw para menos gastos sa entertainment expense.<BR/><BR/>thanks for the heads up!Kris Ablanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09808968013264357571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32128632.post-67753675014076673372007-04-02T12:59:00.000+08:002007-04-02T12:59:00.000+08:00Hey Kris!

Anyway, in it he used economics to come to the conclusion that "the amount of money spent by candidates hardly matters at all...What really matters for a political candidate is not how much you spend; what matters is who your are." He says it's all about appeal, which is all well and good...but then he was talking about the US. I was talking to someone about this, and he said that the scenario is different in the Philippines. You can't win without money 'coz to win you have to cheat...and that takes money.<BR/><BR/>What do you think? Just curious.:)<BR/><BR/>Btw, stock up on the Red Bull na!Tishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06149574045272280288noreply@blogger.com
